This was in the morning paper. Seems to be a different approach on the screening issue. But there also seems to be something about research to develop other tests and methods to determine aggressiveness and severity of the PCa in individuals.

FWIW and discussion.

Dr. Patel is who did my RP. He has a kickoff event in March where he is bringing in some big name speakers then having a black tie benefit dinner as a fundraiser for the new foundation. The presentation event is open to his patients so he gave me the invitation but I don't have it anymore given that I knew I would not be back in Florida in March. Thus I don't remember the dates. If anyone is in the area and interested, give his office a call.
